Through an extremely generous donation from The Rossy Foundation, The Rossy Progressive Supranuclear Palsy Centre (The Rossy PSP Centre) has been created to tackle Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and similar conditions.
We are the first clinic in Canada, fully focused on the diagnosis and management of Progressive Supranuclear Palsy (PSP) and other similar conditions. We embed research with clinical care to create a holistic approach to tackling PSP.
Our clinic is made up of a team of expert neurologists, specialist nurses, research coordinators and administrators. Our team of experts uses the latest techniques in evidence-based medicine to help our patients. We combine tools such as comprehensive data collection, biospecimen and imaging analysis as well as longitudinal observation to better address the clinical and research needs of our patients.
Our Mission
The mission of The Rossy PSP Centre is to establish a world-class clinical and basic research program in Progressive Supranuclear Palsy and related Atypical Parkinsonian disorders with the vision of advancing the understanding of these complex neurodegenerative diseases and eventually developing effective disease-modifying therapies. The values of the program are
- the provision of the best available care;
- embedding research in clinical care;
- availing patients of the latest research studies including clinical trials of experimental therapies;
- the recruitment of bright young investigators to the field as fellows in training and an open and collaborative approach to research
